Healing the RiftUrbanology May 12 2009

I often write about my interest in the Spiritual Science movement, which is a growing awareness of the closing of the gap between scientific research and the concept of spirituality. In 2004 the movie What the Bleep Do we Know (www.whatthebleep.com) became one of the most successful documentaries of all time. The focus of the film was to highlight, in a very entertaining way, research in quantum physics, neurology and evolutionary thought that connects science with the concept of spirituality. Distributed in over 30 countries, for many this was the beginning of the spiritual science movement. I believe that our continuing human evolutionary process, and the interest in the spiritual science concept, has been a major factor in the tremendous success of Dr. Leo Kim’s best selling book Healing the Rift: Bridging the Gap Between Science & Spirituality.

Dr. Kim, a scientist and biotechnological executive with over 50 scientific publications and patents, has developed a very interesting modern-day examination of science versus spirituality. Quantum physics scientists have developed scientific proof that the universe consists of energy fields of different types and frequencies. Kim writes that humans generate energy fields at various frequencies. Kim goes on to say that humans are affected emotionally, cognitively and behaviorally by electromagnetic energy fields that exist in our environment.

Dr. Kim also points out the fact that energy healing concepts have been used by spiritual healers for thousands of years. Kim explains how Dr. Valerie Hunt, a physical therapist and a professor of Kinesiolgy at UCLA, while using a machine called an electromyography to measure electrical activity in the muscles, discovered verifiable electrical fields outside the body. These fields were better correlated with the chakras than with any organs, thus providing scientific evidence for the ancient Hindu, Chinese and Korean teachings about the connection of healing and energy fields.

Dr. Kim gives a number of examples of how science and spirituality are growing closer together as we become more aware of who we are and how much we don’t know. The following quote from Dr. Kim pretty much sums up his research “All of the theories of science and all of the teachings of religions and spirituality are but metaphors that attempt to describe reality. There is now an agreement that we do not know what is really out there”.

What Dr. Kim, and many others, are now saying is that knowledge that is well over 6,000 years is being proven to be scientific fact, not just a spiritual concept. Through my training as a Ki Energy master I learned in the mountains of Korea how to use internal and external energy fields to relax the body - thus allowing it to self heal.
